Black Lives Matter activists disrupt Bernie Sanders speech

TBoneJack said:
As a poster above said, Bernie was in a no-win situation there.

Option 1: Don't make a scene. I'm not doing well with the black vote anyway, so be polite, let them have a peaceful say, and then cancel the event so as to avoid any possible violence that would make things worse.

Option 2: Rip the fucking mike out of that trespassing bitch's hand, have her removed from the stage, and then fist-pump to the nearly-all-white crowd.

Option 3: Take a couple bong rips.

He (and/or his campaign brain trust) chose Option 1. And then maybe option 3 on the ride to the airport.

I watched the video, and Bernie did the right thing IMO. He wanted her to have the mic and handled the situation the best he could without having some security people make things worse. So my hat was off for bernie on that one.

Yeah, he lost very little by doing what he did in response.

If he had tried to be tough-handed, it could have been a disaster for his campaign.

However, his campaign people have to get their fucking act together and PLAN for incidents like this, so they can be prevented. Because Sanders did look a little wimpy and docile in this case, even though he made a wise choice considering the possible long-term consequences.

After another good, successful speech, this incident will be forgotten. But Bernie's camp has to make sure they are prepared the next time an idiot rushes the stage. Because it's probably gonna happen until they prove they can stop it without incident.
 
All the apologists braying at once won't change what is obvious to any honest observer. Fear of repercussion from his own politically correct/hair-brained constituency allowed two women to kick him off his own stage. Dress it up any way you want, it equals cowardice.

It looked that way to a certain extent.
 
I don't care what slogan of the week they're pushing, what color they are or what they represent. I want a President who would have grabbed them by their hair and waistbands and flung them off the stage onto the asphalt. Then as the camera pans up from them rubbing their skinned elbows, proclaims "now that I've taken out the garbage, let's get down to business".

Ponder a cross between Morton Downey Jr., Mark Levin and Randy Savage.

Well, there are multiple problems, but to overlook the preparation problems and just focus on what happened yesterday.
If Sanders had done anything else, he would have come off looking just as bad if not worse. If he had denied them, he would have been villified. If he had forced them off stage, he would have been villified.

This is one of the biggest problems with hard left liberals. They see the world as how they want it to be and not how it really is.
His stage should have been ringed with security, just like at a concert. Anyone trying to rush the stage would be stopped and escorted away. As much as we all would like to be able to trust in the decency and consideration in other people, that is rarely the case.

So how is any of that an indictment of 'hard left liberals'?

I get the point you are trying to make and it is a fair point, but it is really not what I am speaking about.
If you walk through a neighborhood dropping cash every 10 feet, there will be some people who try to return it and there will be some running and snatching it up as fast as they can. No amount of want is going to change the nature of people.

Maybe not their nature, but it will and has changed behavior.

If they had been skinheads they would have been arrested by seattle's finest .
 
Why is it not okay for them to steal an organized event by another, but it is okay for them to steal money to pay for their own healthcare, or whatever else socialist want others to pay for? Theft is theft no matter what it looks like. Maybe someone stole so alisted brains? Maybe zombies?
 
If Bernie cannot handle 2 black women with attitude, how is he going to handle ISIS?

Not ready for prime time!!

My point is that Sanders is trying to be one with the people and lax and it bit him. Where as republicans would have had bodyguards, security, and a barricade to seperate them from any idiots who might want to bum rush. Of course that is some hyperbole but not a lot.

So you want a display of jack booted thuggery from a candidate for president?

What next, a call for krystalnacht against American Muslims?

America already IS a corporate fascist oligopoly...

Thanks to people like you.
